128: Chapter 128 Innate Divine Strength!

Within the assessment area, Su Yu quickly finalized the most perfect forging plan in his mind.

It was only when he prepared to refine the materials that he remembered something.

This was his first time forging, and he did not have a forging hammer.

Su Yu turned his head and looked at the elderly examiner sitting in a rocking chair.

"Examiner."

"Is there a forging hammer here?"

"Could you lend me one?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the elderly examiner, who had been dozing off, suddenly opened his eyes.

He stared at Su Yu as if he were an alien, his face full of shock and speechlessness.

"Borrow a hammer?!"

The elderly examiner was so angry he laughed.

"Kid, are you here to crack jokes?"

"A forging hammer is a blacksmith's second life! Who the hell would lend their own hammer to someone else?!"

"You didn't even bring your own tools, what kind of exam are you taking?"

The old man waved his hand impatiently.

"Go away, go away!"

"There are standard forging hammers for sale in the basic materials area downstairs, one hundred thousand each!"

"Just go buy one yourself!"

"Don't waste my sleep time here!"

Su Yu thought for a moment and was just about to go buy one when—

"Click."

The glass door of the assessment area was pushed open from the outside.

"Not even bringing a hammer, that is indeed a bit reckless."

An aged yet resonant voice sounded at the doorway.

Master Zong Yan walked in with long strides, his hands behind his back.

Upon hearing the voice, the elderly examiner instinctively turned his head to look.

The next second, the old man shuddered violently and sprang up from the rocking chair!

"Master... Master Zong Yan?!"

The elderly examiner's voice was trembling as he quickly bowed ninety degrees, his attitude respectful to the extreme.

"Why did you come to the assessment area in person?!"

Master Zong Yan ignored the elderly examiner.

His gaze remained locked on Su Yu.

"Young man."

Master Zong Yan walked up to Su Yu and looked him up and down.

The appreciation in his eyes grew stronger, but on the surface, he deliberately kept a straight face, putting on a stern demeanor.

"In the path of forging, the greatest taboos are impatience and lack of preparation."

"However."

"I am in a good mood today, and I find you somewhat pleasing to the eye, kid."

Master Zong Yan flipped his wrist.

"Hum—!"

An extremely terrifying, heavy, abyss-like aura instantly filled the entire assessment area!

Even the temperature of the surrounding air seemed to be forcibly suppressed at this moment!

A massive forging hammer, entirely Dark Gold in color and engraved with countless complex array patterns, appeared in Master Zong Yan's hand!

The hammerhead was as large as a water vat!

The handle was as thick as a dragon's bone!

Just being held in Master Zong Yan's hand, the surrounding space faintly emitted groans of being unable to bear the burden!

A Nation-Guardian Rank weapon!

The mountain-shaking hammer!

"I will lend you this hammer."

Master Zong Yan handed the mountain-shaking hammer toward Su Yu, a flash of sly testing in his eyes.

This hammer weighed tens of thousands of tons!

It was a supreme treasure he usually used to forge core components for Nation-Guardian Rank mechs!

It was extremely precious!

He brought it out, not expecting Su Yu to actually be able to use it to forge iron, but rather wanting to use the terrifying weight and pressure of this Nation-Guardian Rank weapon to teach this arrogant kid who didn't even bring tools a lesson.

To let him know the immensity of heaven and earth.

After the kid was pressed until his face turned red and he made a fool of himself from the weight of the hammer, he would then logically bring out an ordinary hammer for him and give some pointers along the way.

A perfect script.

It would both establish his authority and bestow a favor.

The corner of Master Zong Yan's mouth curled into an imperceptible arc as he watched Su Yu with anticipation.

Su Yu looked at the massive Dark Gold forging hammer presented before him.

A trace of surprise flashed in his deep eyes.

A good hammer.

Although the array patterns were still a bit rough, the material was indeed top-tier star-core meteorite iron.

"Thank you."

Su Yu did not stand on ceremony.

He directly extended his right hand and gripped the thick hammer handle.

"Whoosh—!"

The heavy mountain-shaking hammer, in Su Yu's hand, was like foam plastic with no weight at all.

He lifted it up effortlessly.

Furthermore, to test the feel, Su Yu even held the handle with one hand and spun the hammer in the air, creating a dazzling, silky-smooth hammer blossom!

"Whir—!!!"

The weight of tens of thousands of tons, under the rapid swing, instantly tore through the air!

The violent wind pressure, like a category twelve hurricane, blew the beard of the elderly examiner standing nearby until every strand stood on end, and he was almost blown away!

Silence.

The sternness and slyness on Master Zong Yan's face froze.

He stared blankly at the mountain-shaking hammer in Su Yu's hand, which was being swung around like a toy, and his brain instantly crashed.

At this moment, Su Yu, holding the hammer, also suddenly stopped his movements.

He looked at the giant hammer in his hand, which exuded a terrifying pressure, and then looked at the dumbstruck Master Zong Yan opposite him.

A hint of embarrassment flashed in his eyes.

That was rash.

Su Yu cursed silently in his heart.

He now had one hundred million points of Dark Gold Divine Blood flowing through his body, and his physical strength was comparable to a Martial Emperor.

Tens of thousands of tons of weight, to him, was truly no different from a feather.

But the problem was!

In order to keep a low profile, the blood energy value he was disguising on the surface was only one thousand points!

One thousand points of blood energy was just an ordinary Martial Master.

His strength, at most, would be a few thousand to ten thousand jin!

A Martial Master with strength of only ten thousand jin, holding a tens of thousands of tons Nation-Guardian Rank giant hammer with one hand, and even casually spinning a hammer blossom?!

This was enough to send Newton's coffin lid flying into outer space!

This!

This was indeed somewhat embarrassing!

"What's wrong?"

Lin Xiaoxiao, who had been standing outside the glass door, saw the atmosphere inside was somewhat strange.

She couldn't help but push the door open, lean half her body in, and ask with a face full of concern.

"Is there something wrong with this hammer??"

Hearing Lin Xiaoxiao's voice, Master Zong Yan finally snapped out of his extreme shock.

He gasped sharply!

The look in his eyes when he gazed at Su Yu was no longer that of looking at a genius, but rather looking at a living monster!

Something wrong with the hammer?

What could be wrong with the hammer!

That was his Nation-Guardian Rank life-bound weapon!

The one with the problem was this kid!

Master Zong Yan didn't even think about the possibility that "Su Yu was hiding peerless cultivation."

After all, for such a young boy, even if he had started cultivating from the womb, his blood energy would at most be at the Great Grandmaster level.

Furthermore, as a Saint-level powerhouse, his perception was incredibly sharp; the blood energy fluctuation radiating from this kid was truly only one thousand points!

Then, there was only one truth!

"Born with Divine Strength!!!"

Master Zong Yan roared in his heart, his blood boiling all over!

"Desolate Ancient Tyrant Body? Or the legendary Heavenly Tyrant Blood?!"

"His blood energy value is clearly only one thousand points, yet his physical strength is terrifying to the point of being able to ignore tens of thousands of tons of weight!"

"This is simply a peerless divine body born for forging!!!"

Master Zong Yan's eyes were red with excitement, and his hands were trembling violently.

He had found a treasure!

No!

This was the ancestor manifesting, directly slamming the future of the Great Xia Kingdom's forging world into his face!

Excellent talent!

Terrifying focus!

Plus this once-in-ten-thousand-years Born with Divine Strength!

If this kid didn't learn forging, it would be a complete waste of heaven's gift!

Facing Master Zong Yan's wolf-like, fanatical gaze that seemed as if it wanted to eat him, Su Yu was silent for a moment.

Since the other party didn't ask, he couldn't be bothered to explain.

He held the mountain-shaking hammer with one hand and weighed it lightly a couple of times.

He praised it sincerely.

"This forging hammer."

"Very good."

After speaking, Su Yu turned around and faced the head-sized piece of star-patterned steel ore again.

The small talk was over.

It was time to get down to business.

Turning around, Su Yu's ten billion years of muscle memory fully awakened at this moment.

There was no flashy warm-up.

No complex and long-winded array pattern guidance.

Su Yu simply slowly raised the mountain-shaking hammer in his hand.

His breathing reached a startling synchronization with the dancing flames in the forging furnace!

His waist sank slightly.

His spine, the great dragon, suddenly expanded!

That one thousand points of blood energy, which he had deliberately suppressed to the Martial Master level, instantly surged through his entire right arm along a route that was extremely strange, yet perfect to the extreme!
